How Can We Make Pornography More Child-Friendly?
 

I interviewed porn couple Hamilton and Kelly Steele today. Hamilton's son, created when Ham was 12 years old, recently died of leukemia.

Hamilton: "The major reason that I am acknowledging him is that he was the final decision to stay [in porn]."

DUC pictures the young man on his death bed looking up at Hamilton and pleading, 'Dad, it is my final wish that you stay in porn. It makes me so proud. And if you're ever out there doing a scene, and you're flagging, remember - just do it for me.'"

Hamilton: "This industry hates children."

DUC, incredulous: "He was your final decision to stay in the porn industry?"

Hamilton: "That's right."

DUC: "He asked you, 'Dad, please stay in the industry for me.'"

Hamilton: "No, I didn't get to speak to my son. I will tell you why he was the final decision. It was something that my wife pointed out to me - this industry is not friendly towards children. It's amazing because there are so many performers in this industry who have children. It's walking a fine line for them between being a performer and being an adult.

"The reason that this industry doesn't like kids is that there are so many kids in this industry."

What can each of us do to make this industry friendlier, happier and healthier for children?

porn industry isn't friendly to anybody, he's got to be on something to believe that the porn biz should or will ever care about the children of porners. for cryin out loud, the girls the industry feeds off are children, legal age, but still children.

we can't make it child-friendly coz even those kids under the age of 10 know how to use pc already and the internet:BangBang:

I think pornographers should start up their own child care industry as a way of dealing with these recessionary times, what with VISA's new 1% chargeback rule and everything.

Perhaps its just me but I feel the point was missed. I'm not getting involved in the controversy of are 18 year old girls children or adults.

What I am stating is that many of the performers, directors, etc. have children and when you do porn it can be like a fart in a small room. "Everyone gets a smell."

In this industry we have the following:

We have things that protect the adults when problems arise.
(IE: P.A.W.)

We have things that protect the general public and the industry's health.
(IE: A.I.M.)

Shit we even have things that protect our rights to say whatever we want.
(IE: Free Speach collition)

But what do we have in place for the protection and well being for those who depend on the people that earn a living from this industry and are unable to do a thing for themselves?

The answer is nothing... Not a damn thing. It seems to me that these are the people that need it the most.

Not even a damn safe place a parent can drop off their child while they are working.

Can you imagine what might happen when a seven year old slips up and mentions that his mother does porn? Or how about when a parent drops his child off and one of the other parents recognize them? This can easily go from a simple "un-easy" atmosphere to Child Protective Services stepping in and taking away someone's kids.

Something needs to be in place. Right now I'm in the process of research and brainstorming on how to do this. If someone wants to or can be of assistance please contact me. Even if its for no other reason than to say you support this.

PS> I know many girls that flake because they can't get suitable childcare... Perhaps this might help with that problem.
